Designed to integrate with the Cutler-Hammer BR family, it delivers dependable overcurrent protection while adding arc-fault sensing to help guard against dangerous arcing conditions in wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDesigned for flexible, space-conscious installations, this 1-Pole configuration is ideal for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels where compact protection matters. It’s purpose-built for distribution panels and motor control centers, delivering reliable interruption for circuits under load and during fault events.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 A\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-Pole\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreaker type:\u003c\/strong\u003e AFCI Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e panelboards, switchboards, and control panels in industrial, commercial, and OEM environments\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse case:\u003c\/strong\u003e provides arc-fault protection on branch circuits feeding equipment, lighting, and control loads in distribution panels and motor control centers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey differentiator:\u003c\/strong\u003e adds arc-fault detection to standard overcurrent protection, helping to reduce fire risk from arcing due to loose connections, damaged insulation, or worn wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhy this matters in real-world setups: in busy industrial facilities or commercial spaces with heavy motor loads, arc faults can occur intermittently and go unnoticed until a dangerous fault develops. The BR115AF detects both series and parallel arcs, interrupting the circuit quickly to protect wiring and equipment. For OEM designers, it offers a reliable, space-efficient solution that plugs into BR-series control architectures without redesigning panels.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePractical use scenarios include protecting feeders and branch circuits in machine tool enclosures, conveyors, lighting racks, and other control-panel environments where space is at a premium and safety is non-negotiable. If you’re upgrading from a standard 15A breaker in a BR-panel to add arc-fault protection, the BR115AF provides a straightforward, compatible upgrade path that enhances safety without sacrificing layout or performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cutler-Hammer","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":46390621667490,"sku":"BR115AF","price":186.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/8094\/6850\/files\/circuit_breaker_generic_1c9604c2-31ef-4da7-a67f-4201906d641e.png?v=1765378316","url":"https:\/\/www.ampstate.com\/products\/br115af","provider":"Ampstate Electric Corporation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
